To the person who stole not only all of our candy we sat out for trick or treaters while we were gone but also stole our entire actual bowl, I hope your pillow is never cool and you always have an itch you can never scratch.

“😡 And to the sweet boy who, when we found it as he was walking up to trick or treat and I apologized for not having candy, told me that I should NOT be sorry, he was sorry, and vowed to find who did it - may you get all the candy you could ever want. ❤️”
